The White Knight

I don't agree with you regarding Mr. Lindgren, I doubt we will ever see eye to eye on that. However - I do have to say that I admire your efforts regarding Track work Season by Season.* Well done to all those who do the work. *Please Note: This is not a platitude.

Oh!!! Do all Clubs get a 'cut' of the Play Off money?

:shock: :rofl:

Encouraging people not to come. Not great Promotion that - is it? :nono: I notice you didn't complain about my comments regarding Worrall, Rosen or Aarnio. Only Lindgren - strange that.

I can certainly agree with that.

That was my assessment. Shouldn't he have turned up with reliable equipment? As usual - say anything criticising Lindgren and you are for it on here even if you are right.

Three very poor performances by Newcastle Riders in my opinion. Tero Aarnio - Did OK S. Worrall - Unexpectedly Poor. A Rosen - Better than I expected. L. Lindgren - What can I say without getting in to trouble - Very poor.

Actually - my remark was tongue in cheek - but thank you for that Alan.

My point is that for all the 'changes' that have been brought in over the years Speedway has not moved forwards. Indeed if you take attendances as your benchmark then the Sport has gone backwards. I wonder why? Could it have anything to do with said changes? My contention is that, that is the case.

Tero Aarnio did OK.

Great News about the extended Lease. Well done to the Promotion.

I don't think you or I will ever agree on this whka1 - but it is a pleasure to debate with someone who doesn't resort to personal abuse.

You could say exactly the same about the British Premier League Football - that seems to work. No 'Play Offs' there because the F.A. have some clout and won't be dictated to by SKY. Unlike the BSPA.

Congratulations to Edinburgh.

I bet that is difficult to fit in on the Programme too. :D

Oldace and me liking the same Post - what is the World coming to? :shock:

Put simply - No. Debate - you don't know the meaning of the word. All you seem to do is slag people off for having a different opinion to you. I admitted my guesswork was unscientific. Take a pill and chill out.

Because I just don't think that 889,000 is very impressive when you see all the SKY Dishes outside Houses. It doesn't matter where you go - the Dishes are everywhere - from that I would have expected Viewing Figures to be higher than they are - that is all. Not very scientific - I will give you that.

I don't know how many folk have SKY, so I can't really comment on that.

I am not denying the truth of what you say BW. What I am saying is that the viewing figures aren't great, as was pointed out by ColinMills. We are talking the whole Country here. You may think that is great - but I'm afraid I don't.

ColinMills is right about the viewing figures though. They are not exactly inspiring are they? Your Posting would be much better - and readable without the abuse.

But you didn't - did you? :rolleyes: :rofl:

Has he (Lindgren) improved in leaps and bounds over the last three years? Answer: Not a lot. Same question for Worrall and Kerr? Answer: Yes. That is all I am saying............................ I am annoyed RD, basically because the Amateur Psychoanalysts on here try to tell me why I don't go to Speedway, try to tell me that I use platitudes regarding Newcastle Speedway - I don't, and generally resort to what amounts to a personal attack. Resort to personal abuse - and you lose the argument.

You don't usually spout rubbish but on this occasion....................................................... you do. Lindgen is not the reason I stay away from Speedway and I have never said he was. You really need to read Posts properly if you are going to critcise people on here. You obviously haven't got the sense to see that. I don't attend purely because of the Tactical Ride - no other reason whatsoever - that may be trivial to you - but it is not to me. Hell's teeth!! I criticise a Rider who generally underperforms, he may be exciting, but Points win Matches. As Arson has said - Lindgren has been around for a good while now, and, to me, both Steve Worrall and Lewis Kerr have come far further in a much shorter time. I have already said that he has talent - just not as much as thought. Since when was it wrong to criticise, in my opinion justly? As for Tsunami's claim that I use platitudes regarding Newcastle Speedway I would suggest that he also read my Posts properly, or perhaps get his Dictionary out - it might just help.

A gross assumption that. Lawyers Letter in the Post I expect. :nono:
